Violet Valentine from Sherri Baldy Stamps

Today I decided to try something new. This is my first time of making a Step card, and I am not yet sure that I like what I have done.

I used this adorable digi Violet Valentine from Sherri Baldy Stamps, which can be found in the store here.

I know, you are saying, why did she not color the hearts. Well, that is because they are not true valentine hearts until they have been shared with a loved one, so until they are shared, they stay white. She is loading up her love bag to go share the love.

I also added a small stick pin behind the roses, embellished with two small white pearls and a tiny "love" charm.

I did however realize that as I am typing this out, I did forget to color in her skin tone. :'( once she has been glued on the card, I am not sure I am comfortable adding additions of color. However, I might.

I am also contemplating adding some additional roses at the top of the card, thou, I am not sure how that would look. I may play a little more with the card and the flowers.
